Web Help Desk - Distribution and Localized Support Expands Into European Markets
FREMONT, CA, February 15th 2008 – As the technological needs of the European Union grow, many non-EU based software companies are working hard to expand distribution to meet the increased demand. One such company, MacsDesign Studio LLC, is pleased to announce a new distribution agreement with U.K. based UniPress Software Limited. This agreement allows UniPress to distribute and locally support licenses of MacsDesign Studio's flagship help desk software - Web Help Desk - to commercial enterprises, educational institutions, and other non-profit organizations throughout the United Kingdom and Ireland.
"We've always known there was a greater potential for new customers in the U.K. and Ireland who would benefit tremendously from our solution, but we lacked the outreach,” says MacsDesign CEO Jonathan Lew, "With UniPress handling the distribution and technical support in this region, we can avoid a lot of the pitfalls that a brick and mortar software development firm in the Silicon Valley area would typically face." He continues, "UniPress is equipped with 20 years of industry knowledge, the latest U.K. and Ireland market information and the ability to work directly with organizations on a GMT business schedule. This expertise can make all of the difference in a fast paced and results oriented industry like software development."
MacsDesign Studio LLC plans to release version 9.0 of its flagship service desk solution, the Web Help Desk, in Q2 of 2008. The Web Help Desk has already built up an impressive following in the Americas since its version 1.0 release in 1998. Organizations currently using Web Help Desk include, Apple Inc., Time Warner, NASA, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Gold's Gym, FileMaker, a vast array of EDUs worldwide (K-12 to Higher Education) and the United States Armed Forces.

John Ryan, MD of UniPress Ltd. states, "We are excited to be providing Web Help Desk to the business and public sector community in both the UK and Ireland. We quickly realised that Web Help Desk provided a superb feature set and unparalleled value for the money, packaged in an intuitive simple and very attractive user interface. Throw in multiple platform and database support and we have a winner."
